I just broke up with my boyfriend and then I transmigrated into the world of "The Lost Tomb&quo

"You heard that? That's just what they call me behind my back. I guess they let it slip. I'm pretty open-minded. As long as they don't call me 'Young Master' or anything like that, I can usually accept it," Ling Xiao explained with a smile.

"I hope so, Ling Xiao. You know I hate lying." Xie Yuhua held Ling Xiao's hand and said, word by word. It wasn't that he didn't want to believe the child, but all of this seemed too much like a show. To actually take out the Jade Slave in front of them was no different from a child giving a public lesson. It was just a pre-prepared thing.

“We actually have a lot in common. I also hate liars.” Ling Xiao leaned on Xie Yuhua’s shoulder, and with his other hand he grabbed Xie Yuhua’s sleeve and said, “Why think so much? It’s just a form of address. What benefit would I get from hiding it from you?”

"But you, instead of asking me why I arrested those people, why I conducted this experiment, what the next step was, or how far the experiment had progressed, you actually asked me why he called me BOSS. Don't you think your question is a bit stranger?"

"That's because I know your purpose in doing all this—it's all to prolong your life. It seems you haven't succeeded yet, but it should be soon, so I don't need to ask. Hearing such a unique title by chance really makes me wonder if you have another identity, an identity that no one knows except for Ling Xiao and Mr.." Xie Yuhua looked down at him, falling into his clear eyes, which seemed to be without any impurities, reflecting only his image.

It's just too clear... too clean, which makes it not clean at all.

Ling Xiao's eyes were sore from watching, so she naturally avoided his gaze, took a cup from the refrigerator, put a few ice cubes in the cup, poured in some mineral water, and then sighed and said slowly, "You should read less novels with Wu Xie in the future. What do you take me for?"

Since I've already promised you I wouldn't lie to you, I naturally won't hide anything from you anymore. We've sealed the deal, and now I have no secrets from you. You hold all my cards in your hands, so what else do you need to worry about?

"Alright! Stop thinking about that. I heard Changsha stinky tofu is very famous. Will you come with me to eat it sometime?" Ling Xiao took a sip of water and coaxed Xie Yuhua with a smile.

"You haven't even left the capital yet and you're already thinking about the delicious food in Changsha?" Xie Yuhua's mood improved considerably after he coaxed her like that, and she realized that she had made a mountain out of a molehill. She could only blame the child for his rich past and for her being too sensitive.

We drove around Beijing before officially getting on the highway. We kept stopping and starting along the way, it didn't feel like we were rushing to do business, it felt more like we were on a vacation. I guess only Panzi in the two cars seemed to be in a hurry.

"Third Master, Changsha is quite dangerous. Would it be inconvenient to bring a child?" Pan Zi tried to be tactful because he wasn't sure whose child it was. He thought that Wu Xie had been playing with Zhuang Zhuang since getting on the bus, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy. Did Third Master and Second Master know about this?

This child doesn't look young anymore, probably four or five years old...

"Convenient, convenient!" Just as Pan Zi was pondering, a child's innocent voice reached his ears.

"Brother Lingxiao said I'm a real man, and how can a real man be afraid of danger? So Zhuangzhuang isn't afraid of danger." Zhuangzhuang proudly raised his chin.

The fat man was amused by Zhuangzhuang's adorable appearance. He had been worried that the boy would be scared when he saw the instruments in the lab, and he had been trying to cheer Zhuangzhuang up as soon as they left the lab. But the boy just wouldn't respond, and the fat man thought he was terrified.

Looking back now, it wasn't that they were scared, but that they hadn't addressed the root cause. For example, when Panzi subtly mentioned not wanting to take him along, the kid's mind worked faster than anyone else's, and he was terrified of leaving him behind.
